Sean Spicer has said Hitler “didn’t sink to using chemical weapons” so everyone else is explaining to him what the Holocaust was. The White House press secretary was discussing how Syrian dictator Bashar Assad had gassed his people, prompting an American missile strike last week against the regime.“We didn’t use chemical weapons in World War II. You know, you had someone as despicable as Hitler who didn’t even sink to using chemical weapons,” he told reporters.

The Nazis gassed millions of people during the Holocaust.When Washington Post journalist Ashley Parker asked Spicer to clarify, he said the Nazi leader “was not using the gas on his own people the same way... he brought them into the Holocaust centers.”Parker’s blow-by-blow reaction was captured on Twitter.

This kills me. Why the hell does he think people consider Hitler despicable in the first place?

Take away the Holocaust and Hitler was basically Napoleon. You don't see Napoleon being held up as the symbol of all things evil.

From this to Trump with his ignorance of Lincoln and Frederick Douglass, I'm completely gobsmacked and I frankly don't understand why more people aren't freaking out.

So, there were no Germans killed in those camps?

Sean Spicer's conservative narrow mind obviously does not recognise gays, jews, disabled, mentally ill, gypsies and other holocaust victims as REAL Germans. They are not part of the 'master race'. It's his eugenic mindset subconsciously coming to the fore.

I've always said his 'SS' initials suit him to a tee. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waffen-SS

Thank you, SS, for dropping the daddy of all clangers, it will keep folks entertained for a long time.
